“With boundless faith in the peace, dignity, freedom, and independence of our people, President Rugova laid the foundations for an independent Kosovo, shaping a legacy rooted in wisdom, patience, resilience, and the unyielding will of a nation.

A path we will never abandon! I thank sculptor Gëzim Muriqi for gifting the historical President’s sculpture to the Presidency of the Republic of Kosovo today,” wrote Osmani.
